    While you’re right, there’s still a big difference from legal immigrants who were granted temporary residence and illegal immigrants. The former were allowed into the country for a limited duration of time, but the latter weren’t allowed in the first place.

      There’s people that qualified for a process, then that process was suspended/ eligibility is changed etc etc etc.

      “Illegal immigrants” basically all start as legal migrants working through the paperwork.
